The Russian military said in a video message that they had been sent to Ukraine as “cannon fodder” and demanded to be taken abroad.

This was reported by the Militarnyi.

In the video, the Russian military says that they have been in one place for 3-4 days.

Soldiers are worried that they will be forced to sleep on the floor without tents and food.

“Here are the guys who were abandoned as the cannon fodder, everyone is gathered here. Here are all the guys who escaped and survived, ” said the Russian military.

The military also said that no one was taking away the bodies of their dead comrades.

A group of Russian soldiers is waiting to be transferred back across the border and are also required to sign documents.

The military says they are trying to release them from the army.

“We came here, took weapon against a receipt from Colonel Molodtsov. Colonel Shykin is with us now,” said a Russian soldier.
